Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment[edit]

Expanded[edit]

I expanded the article largely drawing from information in the Spanish Wikipedia version. The article might need further revision as to certain facts such as the exact artifacts found with Juanita during her discovery (the info on Spanish article is a bit vague). In any case, anyone who has valid correction points should address this issue. --Dynamax 07:55, 23 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I also expanded this article by adding section, Connecting Climate and Culture. This goes into detail about how Juanita's death is likely associated with a weather or climate event. I noticed an issue in the sources section with repeated sources but I don't know how to fix that. - ElleGooglechrist May 24 2020

Disputed opinions and possible NPOV violations[edit]

example: "she had been slender and beautiful;"

beauty is a fairly subjective matter and unfitting the tone of an encyclopedia, its not a factual statement

"she had a fissure of 5 cm in the skull and an internal hemorrhage that ended her short life;"

the tone sounds almost like emotive rather than factual in nature

Picture[edit]

I have to say, the picture of Juanita's hand is very good, but I think there should be a picture of her face, or whole body. Thanks, --Parasect ^(Discuss) 18:30, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

@Parasect:

Already done Well we now have a picture of her body wrapped. Thegooduser Let's Chat 🍁 00:05, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

“Avacados from Mexico” ?[edit]

What is this nonsense? 206.83.118.145 (talk) 02:47, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That is not the translation for Momia Juanita. Not sure how that got through. 206.83.118.145 (talk) 02:49, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's vandalism. It happens. The IP editor who did it is now blocked. Drmies (talk) 02:50, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
